Our thanks to the several people who forwarded us something that’s getting considerable attention at Twitter this morning, and we can certainly see why.
Actress and little person Hollis Jane Andrews (Disadvantage, K.C. Undercover) has been posting some old papers from her school days and ran across a mindblowing document. Here’s how she describes it:
In 2013, I interviewed with an (unbeknownst to me at the time) Scientologist family to be their nanny. They gave this absolutely BONKERS list of responsibilities and now I give it to all of you.
The two page document is titled “Hat Write up,” which Scientology watchers will recognize. In Hubbardese a “hat” is a job, so this translates to “job description.” And see what other Scientologisms you happen to spot here.
But what has Twitter buzzing is the sheer insanity of this task list for a school-age girl being paid $13 an hour. What are your thoughts?
And some reactions:
UPDATE: We know you’re wondering, so here’s a brief video of the mother who wrote this nanny ‘Hat Write up’ in action.

“I saw a little fellow once, about 110 pounds, pick up a grand piano and shove it out of a burning house. He never pushed a barbell in his life. Of course, when he got out on the lawn; he wondered who brought the piano out. He just produced enough energy at that moment and overcame enough gravity and threw enough postulates out the window so that the piano would dematerialize in the living room, and rematerialize in the front lawn. And he says, ‘I wonder who brought that piano out?’ Now, if he had arduously trained himself so as to eat Wheaties, why, he would have, of course, left the piano right where it was.” — L. Ron Hubbard, May 7, 1954

“UK ENQUIRY: The ‘Findings’ of this enquiry have been handed over to Sir Joseph in House of Lords. This means very early publication. Past signs are that they will not be viciously unfavorable. We are busy working to handle any possible repercussion. It may be a week or so yet before they hit the UK press. This cycle is far from conclusive. We made a last minute breakthrough on the WHO that began all this and keeps busy hounding us. This breakthrough puts the initiative in our hands. Instead of trying to find out WHO has been hitting Scientology we now find we are moved right over, on target, of WHO is responsible for East-West upsets and the atomic war threats and the economic crises. Whetever the UK ‘enquiry’ says, the end of the war is well in view.” — The Commodore, May 7, 1971

“There’s countless factions of Scientology out here in the field operating apart and if we continue this way, then divided we fall. That was by design as well because the SPs know we have THE most powerful tech that can put an end to them. There are tens of thousands of us Scientologists out here in the field and we need to get back together and form up into a Planet-Clearing machine that would make LRH proud. We need to audit this nonsense out and apply PTS/SP tech and get this world out of the soup it is in. LRH said that the purpose of the Sea Org is “To get in ethics on the planet and eventually this universe”. Didn’t happen. Why? Because we didn’t take him serious enough. So – once again we are the only way out for this planet. If we don’t form up and get organized now, we will have lost BIG.”
1998: Redbook magazine carries an article on Scientologist Kelly Preston this month. “She relied upon her belief in Scientology to change the direction of her otherwise conventional career path. Preston was introduced to it in 1985 by an acting coach, and when she met Travolta she was pleased to discover that he had been following Scientology since his early twenties. As their relationship grew, so did Preston’s adherence to Scientology. ‘In Scientology there’s something that’s called an Administration Scale. It’s actually what John did before he decided to do Pulp Fiction’ she explains. ‘It’s a step-by-step plan, pinpointing everything that you’re going to do in your career and how you’re going to do it. It’s not just wishing and hoping and praying. It makes you very much the cause of your life.'”

“Hubbard just took ‘astral projection’ and redefined it as ‘exteriorization’.”
